s1= s2 = s3 = s, the resistivity is given by: | s1= s2 = s3 = s, the resistivity is given by: | ||
ρ = 2aπsV/I | ρ = 2aπsV/I (1) | ||
where a is the thickness correction factor for thicknesses t equal to or less than half the probe spacing (t/s < 0.5): | where a is the thickness correction factor for thicknesses t equal to or less than half the probe spacing (t/s < 0.5): | ||
a = 0.72t/s | a = 0.72t/s (2) | ||
Substituting Eq. 2 in Eq. 1 we get: | Substituting Eq. 2 in Eq. 1 we get: | ||
ρ = 2aπsV/I = 4.53V/I | ρ = 2aπsV/I = 4.53V/I (3) | ||
If both sides of Eq. 3 are divided by t we get: | If both sides of Eq. 3 are divided by t we get: | ||
